quicksilver blood

Chapter 251 Occupy the Game
"I can spare your life."

Roland paused and said these words in an indifferent voice that was almost cold.

Edward even wondered for a moment whether he had heard it wrong.

"You don't have to doubt—I said, I can spare your life."

"...Your Excellency Roland. Let me ask, you should know the meaning of the name Enemy of Kabbalah?" Edward twitched his mouth.

"——Twilight species is a sharp weapon used to deal with Kabbalah, the tree of life. It is a dusk family member of the same level as Ismo. It has similar habits to devils. It wears the skin of a certain intelligent race and mixes into it, learning their culture and culture. knowledge, to acquire their sociability and unique powers—am I right?"

Roland whispered maliciously.

Edward's movements froze for a moment.

However, Roland didn't stop. He continued, "In more detail, it's the virus implanted on the evolutionary tree. When you can completely disguise a certain race on this evolutionary tree, you can record this All the information on the branches of the evolutionary tree. At the same time, it can induce all the life on this evolutionary tree to evolve in the wrong direction—if the opposite species of this race mates with you. And this wrong information will follow Your filthy blood has been passed down. The way to eradicate your influence is to kill all your descendants."

Every type of Twilight Folk has done irreversible damage to the world.Unlike Ismo, who confuses people with hallucinations and provokes disputes, and drinkers, who become stronger the more they eat, the Kabbalah's enemies have far-reaching and subtle effects on the world.

For example, the people living in a certain oasis in Elcat.In order to live in a desert like Elqat, with the blessing of the saint, people quickly evolved supernatural abilities to withstand drought and wind.

But if the place had ever been polluted by the enemies of Kabbalah, the genes for "gluttony" or "thirst" would have been hidden in a certain generation.And it will be passed on further with intermarriage.

And all the signs of the enemies of Kabbalah are hidden.There will be no sign of this feature until the time brings it.

The so-called timing is after the people with this factor account for the majority, or one of them reaches a high level of power.

For example, if one of his descendants becomes the manager of this oasis, he will suddenly become very thirsty from a certain day, and he can drink hundreds of catties of water a day, and he must drink it, otherwise he will die. die.Or from a certain day, [-]% of the oasis in this oasis became extremely hungry at the same time. They ate eight times or even more than ten times the food of ordinary people every day, consuming the vitality of this oasis at an extremely fast speed.

Soon, this factor will become the cause of strife among people, and even cause war, or destruction.

"If I remember correctly, your prototype is the first-generation golden species, a pure-blooded [dragon] species. But contrary to the dragon's ability to evolve an entire tree of life in one body, your ability can be traced back through blood. The origin of species absorbs into itself all the advantages of that race from ancient times to the present - if enough is absorbed, no matter what race it faces, it can appear in front of them as a natural enemy."

"When you face a cheetah, you will grow wings, and when you face a flying insect, you will learn to spin a net. The evolution of life is not worth mentioning in your eyes. Judging from your current posture, you have probably completed the second evolution , grasping the advantages of the two races of humans and devils at the same time."

Roland smiled slightly, with an extremely innocent expression on his face: "——In other words, the advantages of the two races, Ya'an and Devil, right? Enemies of Kabbalah."

Edward lowered his head, surprisingly quiet.

His face was completely dark at this moment.

It's not an exaggeration, it's really darkened.

Like mud covering his face, black mud dripped from it.

"Is this... what the Eternal Sleep Instructor told you?"

A sticky voice sounded from Roland's heart.

It was a dripping and slippery sound like a liquid, echoing in Roland's heart.

This enemy of Kabbalah, who once assumed the identity of "Edward Crowley" and thus completed his second evolution, exudes an unusual aura.

Roland finally looked serious, turned his head, and stared at him—or it—seriously.

That was completely different from the two enemies of Kabbalah encountered in the Tomb of Thousand Heads who had not evolved at all and only had the most basic transformation ability.

If the larval Enemy of Kabala can be easily defeated as long as it finds its true form, the immortality of the Enemy of Kabala that has completed two evolutions and is equivalent to the gold level has been further improved.

Indeed - as long as they hit their bodies hard, the bud-like tissue can interrupt their transformation.But the problem is that after the golden level, the enemies of Kabbalah who have the ability to manipulate blood can already transform their bodies into liquids.

In other words, they have the privilege of being almost completely immune to physical attacks.At the same time, the transfer of the main body has become easier.

In short, it becomes stickier and harder to fight.

"of course not."

Roland thought for a while, and then denied "Edward"'s words: "As for who told me, you don't care."

"Also, I tell you for the third time - I can spare your life."

Roland's third repetition finally made "Edward" fully understand what Roland meant.

It wasn't that he said something wrong, or that he didn't understand the enemy of Kabbalah, but after he truly understood the harm this Twilight Man brought to the world of Farnes, he still decided to let him go.

Edward, who has recorded the ability of the devil, can use "detect lies" at will.

He was very clear that Roland hadn't lied from the beginning.

——He really wants to let himself go.

...if I can pay the price.

"what do you want?"

"Edward" asked in a deep voice.

It's best if you don't die.But if Roland's request is too rude, he can't accept it.

Even though he couldn't even get close to Roland, it didn't mean that "Edward" had nothing to do with Roland.

There are many sharp objects on the wall opposite Roland.

"Edward" could throw the torture device at Roland.His strength is not bad, and Roland can't move or even dodge, even if he starts to chant now, it's not without possibility that he can't fight——

"I want you in my body."

...However, Roland's completely unexpected words directly shocked "Edward" in place.

"Don't understand? Then I'll speak more carefully."

Roland's expression was extremely gentle: "I want your twilight blood. You can inject your twilight blood into my body...Of course, if you are not afraid of death, you can come in with your whole body."

"... Huh? Isn't this the same as what I was going to do at the beginning?"

"No, it's not the same. You just wait here for eleven hours... wait until my soul mutation is completed and the mentor's power leaves."

Roland said with a chuckle.

"Edward" only felt that Roland was looking for death at this moment.

Did he think that he would not be able to die with the power of the Eternal Sleeping Mentor to protect him... Don't make people laugh.

"Edward" has already recorded the Ya'an species of humans, and humans of any ethnicity are included in the "Edward" occupancy list.

This power is almost absolute - there may be exceptions, but that at least requires the power of the origin to be achieved.

"... Happy cooperation."

After thinking for a moment, I didn't realize that I had the possibility of failure.So "Edward" readily agreed.

"Pleasant to work with."

Roland showed an extremely pleasant smile: "Then I'm going to take a break now... As an ally, I advise you, if you don't want to be beaten to death by the mentor's power, it's best not to come over and try to attack me."

"That's natural."

The black mud on "Edward's" face fell away, and a confident smile appeared on the face that was exactly the same as Claudia's.
